Career Planning: The First 5 Years Of Career

Farewell to campus, how to transform students into independent professionals is the first task in the first year of work. As a new job person, it is necessary to overcome the insecurity caused by the gap between personal imagination and social and company actual conditions, so as to adapt to the soft and hard environment of enterprises, grasp the rules and procedures of work, and listen to the guidance and management of superiors and colleagues, at the same time, get the recognition of the company and others. This is like the experience of transforming the pupa into a butterfly. The first year's development is hard, but the result is wonderful.

After a few years of work, you will become an independent professional. You should find a position in the company to become a specialist in a particular field. If the first job of choosing a university graduation is accidental and blind, after two or three years of work, you should be able to re evaluate your career goals and direction according to your self understanding and development potential. If at this stage, you find yourself unsuitable for your current occupation or have no interest in your current job, changing your occupation early is the best policy.

Yi Ting worked in Kunshan, Jiangsu, and frequently visited Shanghai and Kunshan after the Spring Festival because she used her spare time to discuss career planning problems with her. According to Yi Ting's statement, the current job makes her sleep poorly and eat badly, just as she is suffering from occupational fear, afraid of going to work, and worrying about seeing her boss.

After talking with Yi Ting, the author realized that after graduating from University, she started from the front desk and moved to the post of warehouse management, birth control assistant, assistant director, administrative personnel supervisor, customer service supervisor, ISO internal auditor and so on. During the three years, there were as many as 7 working colors.

As she said, "I feel like a piece of cloth, where I need to be wiped out; once the company has the right person, I will hide behind the scenes, because they are indeed more professional and competent than I am." the occupational fear of Yi Ting is due to the fact that in the past three years, there has been no clear direction in which they specialize, relevant work experience and expertise that should be accumulated, and the direct consequence of "East hammer and west one stick hammer" is that they have not played a long-term and sustainable "career foundation".

How can we help Yi Ting get rid of the winding of occupational fear? Career development consultant designs around her career satisfaction (adaptability), personal interest and industry development potential, competitiveness, social needs and many other factors, and designs a career development plan for her.

First of all, let's take a look at Yi Ting's personal interest. Ding Zhaozhong, who won the Nobel prize in physics, said, "interest is more important than genius." Practice has also proved that interest is like an invisible hand in the many subjective factors that affect people's career development. What is the interest of Yi Ting?

She likes to train, guide, motivate, or interact with others. Communicate The more intense the desire to show in public, the more desire the more people show, the more she can handle with any type of stranger. Based on her career interests and personality traits, career development consultant described her career development roadmap, that is, from sales representative or customer service in printing, training, express, office supplies and other industries, through sales director, regional sales manager and other positions, and finally to the position of sales director.

Now, Yi Ting has left Kunshan and accepted the Offer letter. of a Taiwan office furniture company in Shanghai. You have grown up to be a supervisor, changing from a "laborer" to a "hard worker", and no longer rigidly adhere to the role of "setter". The main task is to train him, make suggestions and contact with other departments in the enterprise. Leader Manage project team work.

But the survey shows that nearly 70.4% of the professional people fall in the fifth, sixth cycle of "professional long-distance running", because this stage needs to learn to be responsible for others and get satisfaction from others' success. At this stage, if you can not assume the role of management, you should establish the role of a professional in a certain field and get opportunities from horizontal development.

Indeed, not everyone can play well. Controller The role of a character is just like that of a natural actor or a character actor. The difference between the two roles often makes greedy people unwelcome at both ends. So is Gu Gu, who is plagued by the technology development path or sprint the management position? In the personality type and employment nature of the author in the diagnosis and test, Gu shows the research and traditional personality characteristics. That is to say, Gu Yu likes to think, analyze and creatively work. At the same time, he does not like to play the "villain". He hopes that his co-workers can perform their work in an orderly and independent manner.

During the consultation process, the author realized that there was a big difference between the roles of supervisors and ordinary employees. Managers and managers needed to play the "villain" frequently to correct their misconduct, even though this person was once your very good friend. According to the matching principle of skills, experience and rank, supervisors should be "light" professional and "heavy" in management (coordination, communication, motivation and monitoring).

According to the characteristics of Gu's personality preferences and job satisfaction, career development consultants advise him to identify and shape the career orientation of recognized professionals. Based on the above cases and development rules, the author thinks that when choosing a long-term and stable career, you need to know not only what kind of work you want, but also what kind of work you can do. What's more, you need to know what strategies and means to achieve the progress of your career.
